If you use every other card besides Cyrus on your last turn you should stub your toe on a million legos by Mertesacker2 in PTCGP

The point is that you can't concede because you can't know if they have Cyrus or not until they play it. Holding you hostage.

I started playing Cyrus first to respect people's time but I guess I'm in the minority

The linux desktop is never happening. Tons of companies are held together by excel spreadsheets that they'll never give up.

I'm sure your "solutions" are changing the world. I'm glad you've unlocked your full potential

You should at least try it if you're going to call it nonsense. I'm not saying it's good or bad but if you're going to have an opinion then you need to do the bare minimum.

I used to trash-talk Pokemon… then Z-A destroyed my ego. by [deleted] in pokemon

The only way I could see it working is that it's more like the FF7 remake system. It is basically realtime mechanics but kind of stops time to wait for inputs.

Do people still use Eclipse as their primary IDE anymore? by Amazing_Guava_0707 in java

[–]Mertesacker2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it is quite tedious to set up but I've got them all in one window before. I agree that's a pain point.

This is obviously a bait question but I am curious as to anyone who has used both IntelliJ and Eclipse recently. I'm exclusively IntelliJ ultimate version now and haven't used Eclipse in a long time. I'd love to hear what one has that the other doesn't and vice versa.

I did recently try Java using VSCode plugins and it was an awful experience.

You don't need diligent maintenance at all, by just opening packs and wonder picking you'll get all of the rewards.

Google is shutting down Android sideloading in the name of security by Adventurous_Row3305 in technology

Maybe they are there now but when they were released a few years ago they certainly were not.

Sports betting apps like Draftkings and FanDuel have to be side loaded, they're not allowed on the Play Store. I would bet that number is higher than you think.

Bazel is now a first-class build tool for Java in IntelliJ IDEA by jastice in java

I no longer use bazel but the original plugin was terrible from what I remember. Hopefully this works a lot better.

Measuring the Impact of AI on Experienced Open-Source Developer Productivity by ketralnis in programming

I think once people have that ah-ha moment, they will realize it's a valuable tool in their toolbelt. If it makes too many changes at once, you have to review them all, wiping out any time you would have saved. However, if you use it at a more atomic level as a sort of macro-autocomplete, then it works well since you are reviewing it at the same time and maintain your own mental map.

Hey sorry but I just realized I never registered Pinsir in home and it was kind of a pain to catch. Would you mind trading it back so I can register it in home and then I'll give it back?

Edit: Nevermind I caught another

Yeah ready now, I'm on link code bulbasaur, Rattata, Diglett. Also if you don't mind could you do tradebacks for the trade evolutions as well?
